Finally released from incarceration in embassy.

Now faces incarceration in one, or all, of UK prison, US jail or Swedish penitentiary.

I can guess which one of these he'd prefer. Bet Swedish prisons have saunas.

From a UK perspective, he was arrested for failing to appear in court when he was meant to seven years ago in response to Swedish rape charges.

Meanwhile, Assange is the excuse for Glenn Greenwald to accuse yet more people of hypocrisy. Was anyone in the history of public conversation ever holier than him? Doesn't he know that rights overlap and sometimes conflict? What's interesting about the first amendment is that it isn't absolute, whatever folks think it says on the tin.
